  • Publication number: 20120111187
    Abstract: A fluid cylinder actuator assembly is provided. The assembly includes a cylinder tube and a cushion control needle assembly. The cushion control needle assembly is configured to extend into the fluid cylinder actuator assembly to control fluid that exits the cylinder tube and comprises: a threaded cushion control differential screw that selectively screws into a retainer having corresponding threads; a control needle that includes a stem selectively extendable through a bore in the retainer opposite of the cushion control differential screw; wherein the stem of the control needle is engageable with a threaded bore inside the cushion control differential screw that is complimentary to the threads formed on the stem so that rotating the threaded cushion control differential screw will selectively extend or retract the control needle back and forth; and wherein threads of the threaded cushion control differential screw is different than the threads in its threaded bore.

  • Patent number: 6257123
    Abstract: Internal bearing assemblies for a rodless slide assembly. The internal bearing assemblies are positioned in bearing slots which are provided in portions of a transmission bracket and include inner bearing members and outer bearing shell members. Force applied to the internal bearing members causes them to slide up inclined surfaces of the bearing slots. The inner bearing members press against the outer bearing shell members which in turn press against the inner surface of the rodless slide bore. As a result, a radially inward force is applied to the transmission bracket. This radially inward force is transmitted to a saddle and external bearing assembly. The internal bearing assemblies thus hold the saddle against the outer surface of the rodless slide.
